Sixty-five children, whose 63 mothers took amphetamine during pregnancy, were followed prospectively with regard to their environmental conditions, during their first four years of life. Nine of the 16 mothers, who gave up drug-taking in early pregnancy, were able to remain drug-free until their children reached four years of age. All but three of the remaining 47 mothers have continued to be addicts. Twenty-two of 52 children (42%), who had initially been left in the care of their mothers, were placed in foster-homes at four years of age. The decision to take the child into custody was often based on several negative factors, as determined by the social worker, such as a continuing addiction, unsatisfactory social conditions (12/22), and neglect (6/22). In many cases the decision was made following the failure of different noncompulsory supportive measures.
65名儿童，其63位母亲在孕期服用了安非他明，在他们生命的头四年里，对其环境状况进行了前瞻性跟踪。16位在孕早期戒毒的母亲中，有9位能够在孩子四岁前保持不吸毒。其余47位母亲中，除3位外，其余都仍是瘾君子。最初由母亲照料的52名儿童中，有22名（42%）在四岁时被安置到寄养家庭。将孩子监护起来的决定通常基于几个负面因素，这些因素由社会工作者确定，比如持续吸毒、社会状况不佳（12/22）以及疏于照管（6/22）。在很多情况下，这个决定是在不同的非强制性支持措施失败后做出的。
